Shipping is about $60, but I'll come down off my price before. For somebody to get it resprung, I'd guess might cost $180 for a spring + labor, so for somebody to feel like they get a $550 shock I'll have to let it go for less. I'd get more money for it if somebody buys it thats closer to my...

I've sold my FZ8. Still taking any offers. Can't believe nobody wants a rear shock.

I'll take offers on these. -Penske shock - T-rex sliders - fz1 motodynamic smoked tail light Send PM with your low ball offers and I'll pick the highest one after a few days (maybe if not too low)

1 more: T-Rex sliders that I'll sell for $30 shipped, there is a pic in the Picasa link above.

Time to start selling all my FZ8 goodies. SOLD Corbin Seat - $225 shipped in U.S. (originally bought from Lothodon, so he already fixed all the issues with the brackets. Just the crooked logo, but its a comfy seat. Search the forum for the thread on this one) SOLD SW Motech Connection...

the Vibranators really didn't kill the buzz for me, and they won't fit in the Renthal bars because the Renthals have some orange insert in there. The Renthals are nice, but both my hands were still stinging. It looks like I'll be selling my bike and parts. I'll have to try something different...

My bike came with a battery charging connector too. I think some of the shops do it so they can easily keep the batteries maintained on the floor.

I've had the following bikes in no particular order and I've never had vibes that have prevented riding. the cruisers had a low rpm vibration, and I don't remember any vibration for the Kawi bikes. Kawi Versys - twin Kawi ZZR1200 - I4 Yam Vstar Yam Virago 1100 I'm still trying to sort out the...

No such luck on the silicon today. I got some fast drying tube from Lowes. What I did was stuff about 20 ft of copper 12 NM wire in there, some long strands, and most short strands to stay near the bar end, then I started filling with silicon. The best method I found for silicon was to take a...

No, I'm not squeezing the grips too hard IMO. I've had other bikes and not had an issue like this. ZZR1200, Vstar. Either its gotten worse now after the 600 mile service, or its because I've been riding it at higher rpms to have more power on tap. My longest ride was before the 600 mile...

my hands zing If I ride 40 miles, my hands have nerve zinging after I ride, almost as if I've been operating the power washer. I've tried soft gel grips and gel padded gloves, and its still a problem for me. I may end up selling my bike if I can't fix it.

I could not dial in the rear for my weight and riding. Main issue I had was that I would bottom out on the stock shock @225lbs and the roads I rode. There are a few bumps and tracks on my commute, and the fun twisties can have all sort of bumps after the winter around here. If I tried to...

32mm there is a wrench for it in your tool kit.

AHA. Got it to work for me. I changed the setting to FZ8-Blue forum layout and it works. Drop down in the lower left of Classifieds, or in the User CP settings. It didn't work for me with FZ8-Default or FZ8-MNS layouts.
